The Strokes - Two Kinds Of Happiness [OFFICIAL LYRICS]

[Scaar81]

one gives life and one makes you KILL !!

when i listened to that part i realized that julian has a GREAT voice.

i thought angles wasn't that good, but everytime i think it's BETTER.

[jadakiss98682]

This is seriously my favorite song on the album. I get that UcoD is more ground breaking and amazing, but this song has such a nice flow and amazing guitar-play towards the end. Fucking epic

[Allureist]

I love this song so much.

[ianSHERRATERRY]

does this song sound weirdly familiar 2 any1 else? i feel like ive heard this b4 somewhere...

[drubie67]

This sounds like The Cars!

[TheGabby907]

@drubie67 nah the sound like albert,nickoli,julian,nick and fab makin kickass music

[soares6000]

no live performances of this on youtube :(

[ItsJoeRobot]

1:07 - 1:11 Billi Joe Armstrong voice !

[ChrisMarie93]

@ItsJoeRobot sorry... julian OWNS. :)

[raytj10]

sounds like tom petty

[ChrisMarie93]

@raytj10 i totally get that vibe too

[FLaiR791]

How long must we wait for a live version of this beautiful song?! T_T

[karolina14622]

Noooo troche nie przypomina do końca ich stylu lecz i tak są świetni ;pp

[geeklette99]

i was searching songs about summer and in the links box it said songs about suicidal thought and all i could think was wtf?

[koalagiuli96]

Don't waste your heart <3.

I do love this album, every song has a different style! They experimented so much here....

[Crespi111]

Sounds like Julian Casablancas.... ¬¬

[RicardoFollowill]

@Crespi111 No shit!

[AnHellAtHenA]

I love this song :D stop to comparing ¬¬

[AnHellAtHenA]

I love this song :D

[Ruby95v]

2:00 Sounds like Bono.

[Krambag]

ugh, shut up sayin he sounds like freddie mercury, sounds absolutely nothing alike. although both are awesome

[dreew4321]

WHERE IS FAB D:

[iamnomasterpiece]

Don't waste your heart.

[raddestgirlEVARR]

Just more proof that The Strokes are more than what people think. As I listen to Angles more, I love the experimentation even more <3

[nildabarria]

POLICE? :/

[Gleek4life2711]

This sounds a bit like The Police in the beginning :D

[markeeslimz]

i listen to this song when i read your comments!

[kaneth96]

Amazing.

[LifeSoulAz]

this needs to be a single and played live....thank you that is all.

[MegaPotterfreak]

@LifeSoulAz i know i wish they would play it live sooooo bad!!! i don't know why they don't it's so amazing!

[LifeSoulAz]

@MegaPotterfreak much agreed!!!:)

[bababoum]

sounds so much like Freddie Mercury at some points in this song. Amazing vocalist.

[balenaazzurra]

@bababoum I'm totally in agreement with you, in the second verse they're so similar

[HannahBreanne]

this is amazing! sounds like somethin like should be on an 80's movie soundtrack

[mrmmrmproductions]

It sounds like the cars, if Ben Or were on speed

[MultiMegaBest]

I love the 80's feel,with the bass and the background vocals. =)

[FLaiR791]

I REALLY want to hear THIS and Metabolism live..

[isaravia1985]

This kind of sound makes me back to the 80´s

[zarategabe]

If Angles came out in the 80s, it would have blown the rock world out of the water. Then in the 90s, Kurt would have been wearing JC-style sunglasses.

[0000AllFitness0000]

It's weird to see a band actually get BETTER

[MojoJojoG]

@0000AllFitness0000 well, it is the strokes.

[GodofFrankie]

Did motherfucker just go from David Bowie to Freddie Mercury in the space of ten seconds? Phucking phenomenal.

[antilogicbrow]

@GodofFrankie 'And this is our The Stokes model, able to go from Bowie to Mercury in 10 seconds. A personal favourite.'

Geddit, stokes, cars, to stoke is to feed fuel... I'll just be quiet now.

[GodofFrankie]

@antilogicbrow Yes, quiet. Just listen to the music.

[antilogicbrow]

@GodofFrankie Wow, harsh. :P

[Xplisit23]

@GodofFrankie amazing how he went from Bowie to Mercury! amazing! crazy how he can't be unique ever!

[Katiccia]

that's already a classic

[shamlessasshole]

i seriously do not hope it' Thes Strokes fans who pressed dislike. They obviously must have been look for Jamaican death metal, for having such a different taste of music. this is refreshing, new, awesome tunes. way better then mainstream radio (listen to that shit all day at work)

[suitable76]

Im serious here. I cant understand a single thing he is saying. CAn you guys understand please give me serious answers

[cmndn]

@suitable76 Actually I can understand quite everything he says...

[cmndn]

Perfect SoundTrack For A Molly Ringwald Movie...

[Gettsound]

Great song.

It reminds me something by The Cars ! Am I the only one ?

[Duenderelojero]

Best song on this album

[kenisinoregon]

@HectorCruzSuarez the solo is fucking hard that's why haha

[OGanj280]

I think asswholes should quit questioning the strokes creativity.."Oh I think Angles sucks..." 1. We don't give a fuck if you don't like it, don't waste your time commenting. 2. Room on fire, is this it, first impressions... All fucking genius, and if you check out all their solo shit...It's AMAZING..Strokes completly have my respect as artist

[CantWaaait]

Ba-dam ba-dam ba-dam ba-dam ba-dam

Ba-dim ba-dim ba-dim ba-dim ba-dim

Ba-dum ba-dum ba-dum ba-dum ba-dum

Ba-dum ba-dum ba-dum ba-dum ba-duh-ba-duh

[TheRockanHoffman]

It has nice lyrics... I mean :D

[HeyWheresKel]

I used to not like this song of the album. One day I listened past 0:50

Shame on me for not listening to the song in its entirety. Shame...

[MOSTD0P3]

1:19 i had to whip out my air guitar!!!! :D

[TheSimsUAE]

those 7 bitches ~_~

[kenisinoregon]

I love this song. How do people dislike this? The chorus is so fucking catchy

[ChocolateSmith88]

Their new album beats all others in the sense that I dont have to skip any of them cuz of the "f" word! Im so glad theyre over stupidly swearing and ruining great songs...

[punk4life516]

@ChocolateSmith88 swear words can't ruin songs....

[ChocolateSmith88]

@punk4life516 Great arguement. If I cant listen to the song anywhere at anytime without having to censor it or be afraid to play it...Its RUINED. For me at least ;)

[irishlad1420]

@ChocolateSmith88 FUCK up and stop being so stupid, Its there songs they can express them selves how they like

[ChocolateSmith88]

@irishlad1420 Yes they can genius ;) can i not?? Haha i dont have to listen to it if I dont want to...

[izawhacked]

greeen day has not beeen good since 2000, plz fools,,,watered down garbage

[izawhacked]

FKNG brilliant!!!! the production is spot on....anyone who skips must have not listened to the whole thing....thank u STROKES,,Haters must be 30 secs to mars fans,,oimg

[cubsfan702]

too soft

[0000AllFitness0000]

somebody said this was the worst song on the album haha good one except for one problem the strokes are incapable of writing a bad song

[rdegioann452]

@0000AllFitness0000

even the dark side of the moon has a worst song

[fede018]

@0000AllFitness0000 yes, they are. Have you heard First Impressions...?

[talibanchristian]

this is the worst song on the new album.

[Gangiskann]

@talibanchristian Agreed.. coulda been better. the rest is sick tho. for the most part. lol

[joeyrockplayer]

@turkturkturk67 the lyrics are on the description XD!!

[SuperBigfish3]

THE CARS UAAHHH

[gogolplex74]

M.C. Esher anyone?

[marianna3010]

Non ho davvero parole per descrivere le emozioni che dà questa canzone e la voce unica ed immensa di Julian Casablancas.... Grazie Strokes!!!

Italy love Strokes!!!! :)

[MrInvisibleminority]

OMFG, those stairs keep going down!!

[hyderulez94]

This sounds HELLA 80's :D

[xDiGiTaLiSmx]

@hyderulez94 lol i was thinking the same thing while listening to the album

[Tj22REMIXES]

@hyderulez94 is dat from south park ??? hella cool

[Lucia121]

this song is fucking indescribable

[furonet138]

so 80s lol

[popfanrockon]

I shit you not, sometimes I cry because The Strokes are so fucking awesome. I just... someone please tell me I'm not the only one. No?... Alright.

[0000AllFitness0000]

@popfanrockon They are not like anybody else..........they stand the fuck out with awesomeness....D:

[nicepine4]

@popfanrockon i do too! they r my favorite people!!

[fede018]

@popfanrockon yes, you are. Dramatic much?

[dudewhosbored]

The verses sound like they should be in a Cure song and the chorus is classic Strokes. I love it.

[L7ttleM1ss]

And back to the 80s we go. Excellent

[f00fighter20]

Happiness is two different things

What you take than what you bring.

One is pleasure, one’s discipline

One’s devotion, one’s jus the ring.

Desire and reward.

Long term and short term joy.

Don’t waste your heart……

One has nothing to do with the other

And the world is all cousins not brothers



[f00fighter20]

continued.... Hard to take you off of my love One’s an instant, One takes some will. One gives life And one makes you kill. One’s the means and ones’ for the end. Desire and reward. Long term and short term joy. One has nothing to do with the other And the world is all cousins not brothers. Don’t you give in, You’re beginning

[HubbyNight]

@gratisfactionly I think the first line is "Happiness is two different things" ;)

[SuperGamer87]

Tell me liiiies, tell me sweet litt--oh, wait....

[Darko1393]

the opening and the verses are incredible, but i think it loses it a little bit in the chorus :s

Still a good tune

[balotelli456]

2nd Verse: hard to take you off of my love. One's an instant one takes some will. One gives you life one makes you kill. One's the means and ones for the end. And then the outro is :Dont you give in, You're the beginning

[balotelli456]

Happiness is two different things: what you take and then what you bring. One's pleasure ones discipline. One's devotions ones just the ring. Desire and reward. Long term and short term joy. Chorus: Dont waste your heart (2x) One has nothing to do with the other and the world is all cousins not brothers. Thats from the website bud

[fixable]

One's the means, and one's for the end.

[CrownZer0o]

0:00 The Strokes

[splinter360]

@CrownZer0o well done sir, you just earned what you was looking for a thumbs up(!)

[dawni30]

"Happiness is two different things, what you take and then what you bring."

Love it!

[vincomens]

Tom Petty?



[Pshizle1]

the snare stab sounds like the stab in "Burnin for you" by Blue Oyster Cult

[kemcyPeace]

We're all so fortunate to be living in The Strokes era. 

[irishlad1420]

@kemcyPeace In years to come they will be looked back on like such acts the doors and Nirvana, well this is the band of our era and we can say we where here and part of the strokes revolution

[ChallegerUS]

@kemcyPeace You're So Right.

[HeadShotOwnage]

Yeah 80s defense some Bowie mixed in

[0000AllFitness0000]

I have compared Green Day to the noise my ass makes when I haven't shit in a while.

[tomy4you]

...and I can hear Pixies (apart from the chorus bit)...

[thedart106]

I think the missing part is " when the world is our path to another".

[jayindie93]

I hate having to hit the skip button when I'm listening to an album, but sadly, this is one of the songs that I consistently find myself skipping on Angles. It has great chord progression at 1:27, but that's about it. This, and "Call Me Back" were low points of the album. Everything else has me completely hooked, especially "Life is Simple in the Moonlight".

[Koplowitzful]

@jayindie93 Hey, "Call me back" its a good track, mate! so, DONT TRY TO STOP THE TRACK LIST, DONT TRY TO STOP THE TRACK LIST, DONT TRY TO STOP THE TRACK LIST GET OUT OF THE WAY!

[MrCraggs79]

i hear bowie in there!!!

[thebonebrigade]

<3

[TheRahiros]

Someone compared The Strokes to Green Day?

What is this insanity!?

[Drope182]

@TheRahiros im a big big fan of green day but they have no comparation all two have its own ways to do music green day its like well was like punk rock and it aint to hard and elaborated like rock or garage rock of strokes its kind of different theyre so smart and ingenious in theyr own ways but theyre all so different

[thedart106]

I've been trying to understand what does Julian say after "one has nothing to do with the other" but i can't, anyone knows?

[RawrFishAE]

0:00 - 3:43 Julian Casablancas

[XxXmarielle]

One is pleasure, one is the flame

One's devotion, one's just deranged

Somebody please explain this to me. Happiness is pleasure, when you feel good. I understand that. How is it a flame, devotion, and deranged?

[maalbe987]

4 people can only experience one kind of happiness.

(I'm sorry, I just had to!)

[cesmelendez]

The Smiths + The Stone Roses = This song

[Loiissbill]

@cesmelendez TRUE HAHA

[denerrrrr]

1:59 - 2:03 Queen ?

[227sn]

The Strokes <3

[pucksterz12]

Every time I hear this song now I never want it to end - I just want it to go on forever.

[reodk]

God i love the strokes. I weep when i hear they might break up....weep i tells ya!!!

[occlus]

@reodk I seriously hope not...I've survived through many a stresses only because of their music. There is no OTHER band out there that can ever replace them. 

[rcropper]

This sounds like something off the Breakfast Club... how is the album? Loved is this it...

[alivedude1]

OMFG, those stairs keep going up!!

[splinter360]

@alivedude1 seriousely trippy stuff man. Fucking boss

[TheKraftBoy]

@alivedude1 I swear i tought it was going down lol

[alyal6969]

@alivedude1 I like to think they keep going down :)

[nackykun]

@alivedude1 Or if you look in the opposite way keep going down

[TheBritMonk]

@alivedude1 depends on your point of view personally i think there going down :D

[dfkdjfksjfkds]

The Cars.

[AinurOlorin]

God he sounds like Bowie at some points. AWESOME.

[yankaeuro94]

One of my favorite songs from Angles. The chorus just makes me just want to dance obnoxiously in my room.

[rtenewsonone]

@gratisfactionly

Don't you give in, you'll beat them.

I think they're the last two lines

[seosamh90]

this song is...a very good song, which is hard to do on the 5th or 6th album (not quite sure off hand)....just enjoy the no nonsense enjoyable riff tastic riffs!

[AinurOlorin]

@seosamh90 4th album ;)

[seosamh90]

this song is...a very good song, which is hard to do on the 5th or 6th album (not quite sure off hand)....just enjoy the no nonsense enjoyable riff tastic riffs!



[quedasobravo]

@seosamh90 It's the 4th.

[dfkdjfksjfkds]

PERFECT!



[ZeeboJones]

really don't like this track or You're So Right. can't like them all i guess

[TheBKBroila]

I'll bet anyone my life that this will get to a Rockband game. It just has that groove.

[stev019]

This is my favourite song on the album, probably. The drums in the chorus are fantastic.

I understand why this album is getting mixed reviews, as it's not the same as their old stuff.

[Is2TTT]

1:45 David Bowie

1:57 Freddie Mercury :D

[iHooDoo]

@Is2TTT yes exactlyyyY!!!! :D :D

[shockzrock]

@Is2TTT This song kind of reminds me of the Police, as well. =]

[1Dexturbed]

damn I love this song

[funkmagistral]

on dirait the police " do do do " "da da da "

[tfrench1988]

this band knows how to evolve their music thats why you havent heard the same type of music from them on more than one album they continue to grow musicly and they are amazing this does have that throw back 80s style but in a good way! thanx for a great album strokes

[bhaalicr]

@tfrench1988 listen goodbye horses by Q lazzarus... impossible not to compare... totally 80's

[tfrench1988]

@bhaalicr i know the song and yea there is some similarities definitely i think that was meant to happen though i think they weren't trying to rip off anyone but reminisce on it.

[1HippieRebel]

I never tired of ANY of their songs.

I hope they never stop writing them. ♥

[emmybearLUVSyuANDyu]

i have the CD and every morning and night i play it over and over and theirs not 1 song i didnt absolutely LOVE!

[weedlover420ism]

Strokes!! yeah Green Day can suck my cock

[reodk]

Awesome vocal at 1:57

"One you laugh and one makes you kill"

[pucksterz12]

I love this song! When I first heard it I thought it was The Thompson Twins, or Flock of Seagulls, Oingo Boingo or something like that - only at the beginning though.
